Event Description

The Collegium Institute presents a conference exploring The Common Good and the Future of Capitalism: New Directions in the Philosophy of Finance.

 

Capitalism is threatened by stagnant wages, the fear of recession, and a growing sense that the economy is “rigged” in favor of the rich.

Where lies its future? Can capitalism be ordered to the common good?

Is the field of finance part of the problem or the solution?
